Very well said! I think your first paragraph sums up the most important parts of the story of why CAIP was defunded—Thomas lost interest, mostly for private reasons, and the x-risk funders relied far too heavily on this data point. In part this is because the x-risk funders appear to lack any kind of formal grantmaking criteria, as I write about in post 7 of this sequence.
